This pristine radio has only ever been used for occasional RTTY, but I found the mode
to be a little boring -- so it has not seen much use. If I had to guess, I
would say this radio has no more than 20 hours of total transmit time. I
bought this radio as a back-up for my first MARK-V and then I won an FT-2000
at the Spokane, WA DX Convention in August 2009. So I decided to put all
three radios on the desk, but I must admit the MARK-V's have not seen much
use since I got the FT-2000. So this unit is being offered for sale.
I have posted several high resolution images so you can see
just how clean the radio is on all front surfaces. The two items on top of
the radio both have rubber feet and I can assure you there are no marks. I
am a non-smoker and I have owned the radio since new.
Please have a look at the images and if you're interested, please contact me
